Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 74 Interested

He saw a large number of poisonous snakes rushing towards him.

At this time, Jianchuan Ju had no time to form hand seals. He clenched the short sword behind his back with his right hand. Time seemed to slow down. He stared intently at the trajectory of Orochimaru's attack, preparing to use the "Iai Slash" to cut off the snakes.

However, these poisonous snakes were winding forward in the air, constantly changing their trajectories, making Jianchuan Ju somewhat unsure about his ability to block them all.

But at this moment, a light shout came from behind Jianchuan Ju.

"Water Style*Water Mirror Technique"

The next moment, an oval mirror made of clear water suddenly appeared in front of Jianchuan Ju.

Without waiting for Jianchuan Ju to make any other moves, another thick black iron hook stretched out from his side and hooked on the top of the water mirror. With a gentle pull of the iron hook, the water mirror tilted back at a 45° angle, and a figure identical to Orochimaru was reflected in the water mirror, also using the Hidden Shadow Multi-Snake Hand to collide with Orochimaru's body.

Then the group of snakes summoned by Orochimaru's real body burst into white smoke, and the clones reflected in the water mirror also exploded into water splashes on the ground.

Orochimaru didn't seem to care much about the failure of his attack. Instead, he looked at the green-haired ninja who slowly walked out from behind Jianchuan Tachibana with interest and said with a smile.

"Kirigakure's Yagura, I didn't expect you to be earlier than the intelligence provided."

Karatachi Yagura didn't pay attention to Orochimaru's somewhat teasing attitude. He flipped the stick and slammed the iron hook in his hand into the ground.

He looked at Orochimaru with a serious face.

"The information may not be accurate, Orochimaru."

As Karuji Yagura finished his words, dozens of figures suddenly landed on the beach with the sound of "whoosh~whoosh~whoosh", with the intention of surrounding Orochimaru.

When Jianchuanju saw that the support from Kirigakure had finally arrived, and that it was led by the unexpected Karatachi Yagura, his heart finally settled down a little.

When Orochimaru appeared before, Jianchuan Tachibana was still thinking.

Even if the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon received the information he sent back and was willing to come to support him, he might just end up delivering food to Orochimaru.

Seeing that he seemed to be surrounded, Orochimaru did not panic at all. He even waved his hand to signal pharmacist Nono to continue treatment and told him not to worry.

Seeing this, Karajimaru Yagura seemed to want to provoke Orochimaru's emotions and spoke.

"Orochimaru, if you die here, how long can Konoha's frontline camp last?"

The other Kirigakure ninjas also coordinated and took attacking stances.

Orochimaru ignored all this and instead set his gaze on Jianchuan Tachibana and asked.

"Kid, your situation just now is very interesting. Maybe we can learn more about it next time we meet."

Jianchuan Ju's hair almost stood on end when he heard this.

"What did this guy say in front of so many Kirigakure ninjas? He is trying to get himself killed!"

Jianchuan Ju spoke quickly.

"There's no need for that next time we meet. If you're interested, Mr. Orochimaru, you can go back to the camp and talk in detail. I promise to tell you everything I know."

When Orochimaru on the opposite side heard this, he became more interested in the little kid in front of him.

However, at this time, Orochimaru had not yet experienced the future where he would be killed instantly by Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan illusion.

So he simply thought that Jianchuan Ju had a physique that was highly resistant to illusions, and he had a little desire to study it, but he didn't force it too much. And Goju Yagura also looked at Jianchuan Ju with approval and spoke.

"Orochimaru, there won't be a next time!"

Afterwards, all the Kirigakure ninjas released the attacks they had prepared long ago, and ninjutsu, kunai, and shurikens flew towards Orochimaru in an overwhelming manner.

However, Orochimaru just stood there motionless with a smile on his face.

The next moment, a huge and ferocious snake head broke out of the ground and swallowed Orochimaru, Nonoha, and the three pharmacists who were undergoing treatment, as well as several Konoha corpses nearby.

The giant snake that emerged from the ground withstood the attacks of everyone in the Hidden Mist Village. Only the ninjutsu of Karutagi Yagura and a few ninjas left serious wounds on the giant snake.

Then the giant snake jumped into the sea without looking back, swam rapidly towards the coastline of the Fire Country, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.

"Lord Goju, should we chase after him?" asked a senior ninja.

"Forget it, be careful of another ambush."

In fact, when Karutagi Yagura came to support, he never thought that he would meet Orochimaru, and he did not bring many ninjas with him.

After all, the support troops he led had just arrived at the front line not long ago, and most of the ninjas needed a short rest.

It was only because Goju Yagura had some friendship with Team Ao that he rejected the proposal of Xiguashan Puffer Demon and brought his own people to provide support.

It's a pity, if there were more people, or if we brought some targeted ninjas, we might be able to keep Orochimaru.

At that time, we can even seize the opportunity to raid Konoha's front-line camp.

When Jianchuan Ju heard that they would not continue the pursuit, he stared deeply in the direction where Orochimaru and Yakushi Nono left for two seconds.

Then he withdrew his gaze and began to mobilize his chakra to help Lan Zai and the other three to break the illusion. He then ran to Qing, who was still unconscious in the pit, to treat him.

However, Qing's injuries were so serious that they could not be cured on the spot. Jianchuan Ju could only do his best to stabilize his condition.

At the same time, Jianchuan Ju also saw that his fellow medical ninja who came with Karutagi Yagura was treating the injuries of Kurisan Kushimaru who had fallen into coma at some point.

Although Kurishan Kushimaru's arm was seriously injured, he woke up slowly after receiving the other party's treatment.

"Could this guy have pretended to faint after seeing Orochimaru coming?"

However, Jianchuan Ju thought again and thought that with the murderous character of the group of people in the Hidden Mist Village, they probably wouldn't do such a shameful thing. So he simply ignored it and concentrated on treating Qing.

In the end, Qing was unable to wake up due to his severe injuries. Jianchuan Ju and the other two had to make a simple stretcher and carry Qing back to the camp.

On the way back, Karutagi Yagura also specifically looked for Kanegawa Tachibana to ask what Orochimaru meant by what he said before he left.

Jianchuan Jue only vaguely said that he used some secret technique and by coincidence he was able to withstand Orochimaru's illusion attack.

After all, if the truth is that it is a secret technique, the worst that can happen is that you just hand it over to save your life. But if by accident you are really misunderstood as having a special physique and are captured for research, that would be too miserable.

Fortunately, the ninja world still attaches great importance to the intellectual property rights of secret techniques. Even though Jianchuan Tachibana is just an orphan, Karajima Yagura has not shown any intention of asking him to hand over the secret techniques.

Everyone returned to the front-line camp safely.
